Hi,

Followed by above brief explanation, please execute the SPRO transaction OMX1 for “Activation of Material Ledger” overview details...

In order to change valuation class in the material master, you have to make sure

that none of the following exist in you system:

1 Valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period
2 Open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines
3 Production orders for which a goods movement has already
taken place

Please read the note 102653.

If you have existing documents or stock you can not change the valuation class.

By this correction the system checks all dependent purchase documents
without delete flag and error M3368 occurs when it finds at least one
not deleted po item (not only when stocks exist) !

1. First be sure that no stocks in actual AND previous period exist !
see note 30656, with an example how to get zero stocks.
2. SE16 ->table EKPO. Select all po items of the related material.
If you find items with LOEKZ <> 'L' you have to delete them in
ME22.

3. SE16 ->table AFPO. Select all items of the related material/plant.
If you find at least one item, change of val.clss. is not possible.
You have to archive these production order(s) (see note 146241).

This hard restriction is necessary as inconsistencies in account
assignment will follow after change of val.class, when proceeding
follow up functions of a po item before and after changing valuation
class.)
So, all depending purchase order items of this material/plant have to be
marked for deletion in tx ME22/ME22N, also when they are old and
completely delivered and invoice check is performed.

To avoid an error message (MM326) you are able to change the customizing
settings as described in note 160970.
As a possible workaround you can use this note by proceeding a warning
message MM326 only. But read the instructions carefully before you
decide to apply this note.
The system checks against PO items without * for deletion and gives
error M3368. If you really want to change the valuation class or the
profit center although there are such purchase orders, you can do this
this when the message MM326 is customized as warning.

Hi,

This looks like wrongly tagged.

MM (Materials Management)

from where did it come? we have a dedicated tag for Material Ledger, so it should be used instead of MM.

Apolgies Jurgen, well i am not aware of separate tag for Material Ledger, after seeing the screenshot the user is trying to change the Material Master, so i tagged the same.
